Narrative

The driver just finished off loading his 1st load of blasting agant at the blast pattern & was getting the truck ready to travel to the batch site to re-load. He had removed the funnel from the end of the discharge auger & moved the auger into the saddle it rides in while driving & had picked up the funnel to place it in carrying mount when the auger came out and hit him.
